David roared out of the parking lot making tires screech and dust billow up in a cloud. Down the main street he drove zigging and zagging till he'd put that foolish place far to his rear.
He was scared and wished to the almighty for some quiet place to shake off his fears. Then a well known sign, Fremont Riding Academy!
A turn down the side street he soon drove into the riding academy he as a younger youth did have lessons to ride. Stopping the truck he jumped out and was quickly greeted by Alice Fremont.
Alice a student also in college she had been attending Michigan State University for a degree in animal husbandry. David had even fated Alice a couple of times but niether found true love.
Old friendships, college times, the two exchanged notes how their lives were now more busy than ever. It was then that David mentioned his almost foolish application for Trans-Porn testing.
Alice offered David a look at one of the new animals her father had taken in to save from destruction at the science lab. She told of the poor animal's starved condition and how it seemed very aware of their kindness toward it.
Walking into the hundred stall stable she lead David to stand looking down into a special holding stall. In the straw was nestled a dark figure. David turned to look at Alice and then to look at the figure.
"It's a man or maybe almost a man, what is it?" asked David.
"Mark, Mark please stand up for my friend!" asked Alice to the dark formed creature.
Slowly the figure did as asked and stood up showing his wretchid half changed body. David stared at the form, part man in structure the hair, skin, ears, nose and mouth, loss of hands, and legs to hooves were very much like a colt draft horse.
"Mark was as you or I but maybe a year ago he too applied for some test project at that Lab. He was rejected and left to starve, maybe even die as the half changed creature he was then. Father taled with a Professor Wilson there and procurred several samples of the newest testing formula. We asked of Mark his choice and were surprised he would rather become a draft horse than be left part man part animal the rest of his life." explained Alice.
"You mean your Father is injecting him with their change serums till he becomes a horse?" asked one surprised David.
"Yup!" came a response from the dark formed creature.
"It seems when the process is done very slow and allowing the changes to happen over months instead of days the test subject retains far more memory and could actually become a human intelligent type of horse." explained Alice even more.
"Wow!" was all David had time to say as from one side came a push shoving David over the safety rail and into the creatures pen.
Alice too was almost knocked over the rail as Max the stable's trainer was walking a mare in heat past the two when the animal bolted at the scent of the changing creature nearby.
"Hey, watch it there Max!" yelled Alice as below David lay face down in the manure strewn straw.
